PIONEER MANGLE, 1950's

Early mangles would wring out washing by passing it through rollers originally made from wood, later rubber. After the Second World War electric washing machines came over from America, which had there own rollers mounted on top of the machine operated by a manual handle (domestic spin dryers were not available yet in the UK). Whittaker Bros Ltd who ceased trading in 1958 made this machine.
